Every so often, I yearn to start a blog about bad grammar. I would call it Grammar Shame (unless someone else got to the name first) and post all sorts of photos about the bad grammar and spelling I see in my daily life. But I never start it, for three important reasons:

a) It would depress me a lot.

b) Probably someone else already does it and has a snazzy web design.

c) I would have to figure out how to get all these photos off my phone.

But NPR has a story about Jeff Deck, a guy who started the Typo Eradication Advancement League, and who is my new hero.

Actually, there are several ways to get the photos off your phone, and all or some might work, depending on your phone.

I can put a microSD memory card in my phone (they don’t cost much). The photos I take can be transferred to this card from the internal phone memory, and then the card can be read by my pc using the (supplied) adapter.

You might be able to email the photos from your phone to yourself.

Also, if these methods don’t work, you could send the photos to someone else’s phone, if you have a willing friend with a phone that can handle a removable memory chip. Photos are sent just like text messages.

I hope that this is useful. There may be better ways, but my 15-year old son isn’t speaking to me right now, so I can’t tap The Source.
